U. S. to Quiz Jap Action.

While disinclined to credit the reports that the Japs had established a naval base in Lower California, U.

Commander Noruma, naval attache of the Japanese embassy, called upon the navy department officials and assured them that no attempt is being made to establish a permanent naval base in Lower California.
